Hi Vernon.
I have been collecting a few records from the Singapore and Malaysian 60s-70s scene and often despaired at how little information one can find about the artists on the net. So I need to say many thanks for this interesting and informative blog.

One thing I haven't been able to find out yet, and hoping you could help me with, is whether Rose Iwanaga is the same girl as the Rose who released this Guantanamera EP on the VRC label? :

Hi Sid,

Thanks for your kind comments. I am not sure on this count. Can anyone who is familiar with Rose's singing career assist us ?

Cheers.
